Swapped: A600 + 4GB HD for A1200 Memory expansion

[macwhoelse]

I'm looking to swap my A600 for a memory expansion for the A1200.
The A600 works great & is cosmetically good as well,as you can see in the photo's. It is fitted with a 4GB CF IDE HD. It comes with workbench 2.05 disks & Manuals.

Also this swap now includes the following :- (none has been tested, please ask if you would like me to test any of it)

1 - STAR LC10 colour printer + ink cartridges.
2 - Fully boxed Rombo VIDI RGB
3 - Fully boxed VIDI AMIGA Video Frame Grabber
4 - ROMBO VIDI CHROME package
5 - Fully boxed Master Sound Music Sampler package
6 - SPRITZ graphics package

I'm looking for a memory expansion for my A1200 as a straight swap. I would prefer an 8mb if possible.

As it's a straight swap I'm happy to pay the postage for this and the recipient paying the postage for the memory expansion. I would prefer to do this swap in the UK as it would cost me too much to send overseas.
Thanks, Mac

Using IDEfix97 will patch the SCSI.device of the A600 and you'll see the remaining space of the HD, so all you need is a decent file system like PFS2 or PFS3 to use the remaining 16Gb.

Thanks for the tip.
I might have a try at that tomorrow if I have time.

I have now added a few more bits that I am throwing in to swap for an A1200 memory expansion.
I have replaced the harddisk for a 4GB CF IDE HD & added a printer, audio sampler & Video grabbing software & hardware.

Sort of interested as I have an 8mb card which also accelerates the machine about 2&1/2 times and is currently not being used as I have a Blizzard. Not sure what make it is. If I get a chance on Tuesday when I get up I will have another look (shift work really sods my lifestyle up at times ). Does the printer work and does the 600 have the 1mb upgrade?

[macwhoelse]

Yeah, I worked shifts most of my life. Found a nice Mon-Fri day job now though.
The A600 hasn't been expanded, just the vanilla A600 with a 4gb Cf IDE HD. I'm going to check out the printer within the next hour. Please bear with me.


UPDATE :- Just checked the printer & it worked fine.
I had to use an Epson driver to get it to print as I couldn't find a Star driver but it worked great.

PM sent to Dagger to confirm the printer works.

Finally got out of bed. Managed to take a photo for you. The card is a Magnum and is populated with 8mb.

I have agreed a swap with Dagger.
We will be packing & sending the items to each other ASAP.
